Timeline
Edith Amituanai (born 1980) is a New Zealand photographic artist.
Amituanai was born in Auckland in 1980 to parents who had emigrated from Samoa.
She was raised in Christchurch and now is located in Ranui, West Auckland.
Amituanai's photography first came to the attention of the art world while she attended Unitec, when her work was included in the Break/Shift exhibition (2004) at the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery.
In 2005, Amituanai completed a Bachelor of Design at Unitec Institute of Technology.
Amituanai got married in 2005.
At the time, she was the first "Mrs Amituanai" in her husband's household for 14 years, after the untimely death of his mother.
Double Take (2019) - ISBN 978-1-877309-43-4.
Her work was later included in the Lara Strongman book Contemporary New Zealand Photographers (2006), documenting her work as an emerging artist.
In 2007, she was the inaugural recipient of the Marti Friedlander Photographic Award.
Examples of her work are held in the collections of Te Papa, Auckland Art Gallery, and the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery.
In 2008 she was the first Pasifika artist to be nominated for the Walters Prize for Déjeuner, an exhibition depicting her cousin after a rugby practice session in France.
In 2009 she completed her Masters of Fine Arts from Elam School of Fine Arts at the University of Auckland.
In 2015, Amituanai founded ETA (Edith's Talent Agency), an art project documenting the communities near her local suburb of Ranui.
She is also the arts co-ordinator at Ranui Action Project, a local community development programme.
Keep on Kimi Ora (2018) – ISBN 9780473437619 – collaboration with Kimi Ora Primary School in Flaxmere.
2019 was the first survey exhibition of her work at the Adam Art Gallery in Wellington curated by Ane Tonga and included over 60 of her photographs.
Amituanai received the KLM Paul Huf Award, Amsterdam, and in 2019 Amituanai was appointed a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit in the 2019 Queen's Birthday Honours, for services to photography and community.
Her artwork is held in the collections of Te Papa (the national museum of New Zealand), Govett-Brewster Art Gallery and the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki.
Amituanai's photography focuses on diaspora experiences in New Zealand, family communities, urban environments and amplifying unseen and unheard people.
Many of her works depict Pasifika in Aotearoa, and transnational domestic interiors of Samoan diaspora houses.
Amituanai is inspired by documentary photography, and has a commitment to community engagement with her subjects.
Amituanai's documentation of diaspora communities in West Auckland have been described as challenging the dominant myth that West Auckland is primarily a European area.
Her work features aspects of both straight documentary photography and staged photography.
Her works variously confront her parents' cultural values in a new context, celebrate her parents' generation's Samoan traditions such as marriage in a New Zealand context, and document the ways in which Pasifika communities establish new lives while maintaining connections to their homeland.
